The Real Meaning Behind 'Glad You Exist' By Dan Shay

Publish date: 2024-04-13

Dan + Shay are known for their romantic tracks, and "Glad You Exist" is no different. The song is clearly about the simple joys of finding your person. When they sing, "There's a couple billion people in the world / And a million other places we could be, but you're here with me / Take a moment just to take it in / 'Cause еvery high and every low lеd to this / I'm just so glad you exist," it's obvious they are referencing people who are happy to have found each other.

The group opened up about their new track and said "it's more than just a song." "It's a message of gratitude and hope," they wrote on Instagram. "A message to everyone in our lives: our fans, our friends, our families, to remind them all how grateful we are to be on the planet at the same time. It's truly remarkable when you think about it. We've spent the majority of the past year, like many others, searching for answers and a sense of normalcy, but finding comfort in memories of better days (that we all know will return soon)."

They previously released "I Should Probably Go to Bed" in July 2020, and said the song marked a new era for the group. "It feels like the next chapter, the beginning of a new era," Mooney told People. "We were just like, 'The time feels right.'"
